Departing Missionaries

It is never fair that each one becomes such great missionaries and then they leave! We are so proud of the accomplishments, dedication, sacrifice and self-less service from this group! We have made friends that we can NEVER forget and we are so excited to see what their lives have in store! "And now, I ask, what great blessings has he bestowed upon us? Can ye Tell? "Alma 26:2

 Last Morning in the California Ventura Mission 

 This is so sad! 

It is really hard to see people that you have learned to love and rely on just drive right out of your life! The only consolation I have is knowing the excitement that their families must be having as they wait for their return! We will always remember our time here together! 

New Missionaries

Welcome New Missionaries!

Elder Mateaki and Elder Rogers will be with us here while they wait for their Visas to go to India.

Hermana Brockhausen will be going to Costa Rica and Elder Brede will go to Austrailia as soon as all of his paper work is completed. We wish we could keep all of them, but are happy to have them begin their missions here with us! We are so happy that Elder Eggen's call is to serve here with us in Spanish work! 

Santa Barbara Airport: Elder Robins, Pres Nakken, Elder Eggen, Elder Mateaki, Elder Rogers, Hma Brockhausen, Elder Brade, Elder Tanuvasa

We tried to go up to the "Cross" at Grant Park, but it was still closed because of the destruction caused by the Thomas Fire in December. 
Elder Tanuvasa, Elder Robins, Elder Mateaki, Pres and Sister Nakken, Elder Rogers, Elder Eggen, Elder Brade and Hma Brockhausen

After dinner at the Mission Home, each of the new missionaries were assigned to go with a companionship for the evening. They went to appointments, had the opportunity to contact and were able to share their testimonies for the first time! We are so grateful to have each one of them here with us! Also, thanks to each companionship for showing them what "mission life" if all about!
